There isn't one grade of snow and ice. To meet and beat the conditions that Mother Nature throws your way, you deserve a line of deicers that give performance versatility. The IceAway line of professional grade ice melters are formulated to fit your need.

Safe Step offers a broad range of ice melters that deliver outstanding deicing performance tailored to your specific needs. Each formulation features the Performance Meter that allows you to quickly pick the right product for your weather conditions.

Safe Step Pro Series was designed specifically for the professional. We took into account everything we've heard you say over the years and every potential ice melting challenge, and devised superior ice melting products that are both safe and effective.

Providing safe roads during the toughest winter storms requires more than an ordinary deicer. That's why we've created FreezGard, the leading high-performance anti-icing liquid on the market. Transportation departments across the country trust FreezGard to create the safest roads with its unsurpassed low-temperature performance and superior melting capacity.

The generation of “Schrödinger-cat” states with superconducting devices is scrutinized. While the size of the cat cannot be quantified by standard measurements of avoided crossings, another metric is shown to appropriately witness large-scale quantum coherence.

Solving the dynamics of a system described by a time-dependent nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings model is a daunting task due to time-ordering effects. The problem is shown to be circumvented by quantizing the pump field, leading to exactly solvable solutions.

Topological properties of noninteracting band structures of quasicrystal potentials are studied, where concepts such as the pseudo–Brillouin zone, spiral holonomy, generalized Berry phase, and Berry curvatures are discussed using a class of relatively simple models.

High-precision measurements of nuclear-spin-dependent parity-violation (NSD-PV) effects are demonstrated with the diatomic molecule BaF, where the sensitivity of the measurements is expected to be sufficient to measure NSD-PV effects of the size anticipated across a wide range of nuclei.

A family of bosonic quantum error-correcting codes is introduced to boost the reliability of quantum computation schemes against photon loss. These codes, which are based on symmetry properties of three-wave-mixing interactions, are hardware efficient for architectures involving microwave photons stored in superconducting resonators.

He atoms is measured by two-photon spectroscopy with an accuracy more than one order of magnitude higher than in previous experiments. The determination of some related transition frequencies provides a good test against the theoretically calculated energy levels.
